Bravery and Courage

    I think that bravery and courage are sort of the same. Having courage is having a characteristic that lets you do certain things that not many other people are willing to do. Bravery is doing things that other people might not have the courage to do. These two things you do even if other people do not agree with it or think they are the right thing to do. I think the character with the most courage and bravery in To Kill A Mockingbird is Atticus Finch. He had the bravery to accept a case that he knew he would be shuned for in his small town. He also had the courage to keep going with it after he has been called so many names and his children are picked on. Even after all that, at the end of the day Scout and Jem are the ones he is doing this for.
    In real life I admire soldiers in the army. They have both major bravery and courage. They risk their lives to defend the country we live in. Most of all, they fight for their own families. Even though the families do not want them to leave, they know that it is the right thing. No matter what the people that are against army violence say, those in the army still know what they are doing is right. I applaud them because not many people have the courage or bravery to put their lives on the line for other lives.
